hierarchies Identifier immutable Implicit

lol he didnt give a definition name of a variable, method or class cannot be changed the object on which a method is invoked. For example, in the call x.f(y), the object x is the implicit parameter of method f loops that have no end relationship between a subclass and its superclass, the subclass is more specialized than the superclass a class that is defined inside another class a variable defined in a class for which every object of the class has its own value a type with no instance variables, only abstract methods and constants inheritance relationship a sequence of statements that has a name, may have formal parameters, and may return a value a method that changes the state of the object a loop that is contained within another loop a value of a class type (Rectangle box = new ractangle --> rectangle is the Object) a value that denotes the location of the object in memory a symbol denoting a mathematical or logical operation a method with the same name, but different arguments redefining a method in a subclass an item of information that is specified to a method, when the method is called selecting a method among several methods that have the same name on the basis of the actual types of implicit parameters a condition that is true after a method has been called a condition that must be true when a method is called if the method is to work correctly a number type(int, double) or boolean a value that denotes the location of an object in memory (Rectangle box = new Rectangle --> box is the reference to the object)

a collection of values of the same type stored in contiguous nenory locations automatically converting a primitive type value into a wrapper type object a general class, from which a more specialized class inherits a class on which another class depends a program that translates code into machine language a statement such as if or while that is made up of several parts such as a condition and a body a circumstance that must be met setting an newly allocated object to an initial state a method that initializes a newly instantiated object one class needs services provided by another class a class that inherits variables and methods from a superclass but adds instance variables, adds methods, or redefines methods see do-while do{ statement }while(condition) assigned to values data (ex. Data[0]) hiding of implementation details a parameter of a method other than the object on which the method is invoked. They are enclosed by parenthesis (initialization; condition; update) for (Type variable: collection){ Statement } a method that gets parameters denotes that objects of one class contain references to objects of another class

a value that denotes the location of an object in memory such as double or void the part of the program in which a variable is defined a method that sets parameters an effect of a method other than returning a value a statement consisting of only an expression a sequence of characters refers to changing an entity of one datatype into another a symbol in a program that identifies a storage location that can hold different values while (condition) a class that contains a primitive type value, such as an integer
